Question

6· Loo k up and reference the MSDSs for benzofuran-2-yl methyl ketone, ethyl acetate and hexane and comment on the human toxicity Draw a "to-scale" replicate of the two TLC plates that you will be preparing in this experiment analysis? Explain your answer. Why are the vegetables being cut with a knife only and not blended in this experiment? It is mentioned in the "Understanding the Experiment" section that heat development is 7. h compound, reactant or product, will be found higher up on the silica plate during TLC 8. detrimental to the progress of the reaction. Why do you think this might be? THEORY Biotransformations are chemical reactions that occur as a result of enzymatic or metabolic activities by a living organism. As early as 1918, the biotransformation by baker's yeast was described by organic chemists to reduce ketones and ketoesters to the subsequent alcohol. This simple reaction

Explanation / Answer

To calculate atom economy, we must know the mass and formula of each of the starting material used in the reaction. Since in the biotransformation, we are not sure of the amount of biocatalyst that comes from the vegetable soup, we cannot accurately calculate the atom economy for this reaction.
